straybird – Lucy Cash and Becky Edmunds  – have created the opening film for the State Of The Arts conference 2012. This year SOTA is called ‘Artists Shaping The World’ and for the film, Lucy and Becky had a series of conversations with a range of artists about what matters to them about their practice as well as why art might be vital in the times we’re living in.  http://www.artscouncil.org.uk/news/arts-council-news/state-arts-2012-watch-online/
